"the UN General Assembly recognized the 1982 Israeli-sponsored massacre of Palestinian refugees in Sabra and Shatila in Lebanon as an act of genocide. This history is part of the backdrop for South Africa’s legal intervention."

The propaganda of the act: "At least 21 vessels were signaling that they have no ties with the country, or sending similar messages, in ship-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg on Wednesday. The majority of these ships were in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden areas."

You know what’s fuckin’ wild? Growing up in a rural conservative area in the 80s, this flag was *everywhere*, as the Rambo-era propaganda tried to rewrite the Vietnam War. And I never knew, all that time, that there was never a single soldier held captive after the war! Not one! All these flags!

‘Rather than force Israel to comply with international law and address the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, the US and its regional allies, including Egypt, have launched a joint project to transport cargo on land as an alternative trade route to the Red Sea.’

"As a result [of Houthi operations], underwriters are seeking exclusions for vessels with links to the US, UK and Israel when issuing cover for trips through the area, according to Marcus Baker, global head of marine and cargo at Marsh. It essentially means they won’t provide insurance."

Great post on the recent takeover of Theory & Society. The changes appear to be more profit-driven than ideologically motivated, further highlighting the trend of market incentives and profit motives influencing the structure and content of academic knowledge. scatter.wordpress.com/2024/01/11/t...

Infuriating that no one, not even my fave FT, reported on South Africa's opening yesterday. They all waited on Israel to spew its bullshit self-exoneration in front of the court so they could report that.
